Year Abroad

So I finally submitted my first form for my year abroad. Took me a while, but I decided on Salamanca and University of New South Wales in Sydney.
First choice is definitely Sydney as it would be incredible and the Music Department there does everything, which is what I want. Only thing is, is that I’d leave here in July just after exams finished and wouldn’t come back til the next June…. I’d miss all the English summer and the festivals and, though I know this is a pathetic thing to say, I’m going to miss everyone’s 21sts too! 
My family were planning on going to Sydney for Christmas in 2013 though, so they would come and see me for 3 weeks at about halfway through my year away, which would be ideal. Its such an opportunity, but I’d leave a lot behind too…
Salamanca is a bit more of a prestigious conservertoire, rather than a university, but also does Musicology as well as performing which would be good. I’d have to learn Spanish again, though I’d quite like to do that as it’s good for getting jobs etc. in the future. Not sure if it would be 100% right for me but it’s better than going nowhere…!
So thats the form in just to get the ball rolling, it’s nothing final, it just lets the International Office know what I might plan to do.
In the mean time, this is what I'm listening and groovin' away to at the moment:
